Hi, when I complete my tax file and chose to mail to CRA, why the file I download is different from the one I saw in my account?

The return file that which I suppose to mail to CRA does not have provincial tax form, but the other duplicate one has. I asked CRA via and they said I should include provincial forms, what should I do now? thank you !

The CRA only requires a specific sub-set of forms when you file by mail. So, TurboTax automatically prints out just the forms the CRA wants.

The other "archive" copy is a complete set of all the forms and schedules that were used to prepare your return for your records.
